Psytrance — short for psychedelic trance — is characterised by its driving BPM (typically 140–150), layered synthesizer melodies, and otherworldly sound design. Rooted in the Goa trance movement of the early 1990s, psytrance festivals are often held in natural settings — forests, beaches, mountains — creating a symbiosis between music and environment. From full-on to darkpsy to progressive, the genre's subcultures offer distinctly different sonic journeys.
